(Due to sudden miracles I am now unkillable)

you're too much of a fucking coward to say with your whole chest to these people "you don't belong here" but the way you treat them–or DON'T treat them–says everything about you and what you stand for!! fuck you, fix your damn heart or stay home because clearly you have NO pride

UPTOWNTHOTS IS CLEARLY AN EXCLUSIONARY ASSHOLE FROM HER POSTS ON THEIR OWN BLOG THAT YOU CAN LOOK AT WITH YOUR OWN EYES. I HAVE SEEN OTHER POSTS OF HER'S TALKING ABOUT PRIDE DISCOURSE FLOAT BY ON MY DASH BEFORE. I SAID SOMETHING THIS TIME BECAUSE AN OTHERWISE GOOD TAKE IS TAINTED BY THE CONTEXT OF WHO POSTED IT AND WHY. KINDA LIKE POSTS TALKING ABOUT MISOGYNY, ONLY ONCE YOU REALIZE OP IS A TERF IT RECONTEXTUALIZES THE POST AND CLEARLY THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT TRANS WOMEN.

I AM NOT CLAIMING THAT THERE ARE BOUNCERS AT PRIDE OR SOME OTHER FORCE ACTIVELY PREVENTING PEOPLE WHO ARE OR APPEAR TO BE "CISHET" FROM PRIDE. I HAVE BEEN TO PRIDE. I AM AWARE OF HOW THIS WORKS IN REAL LIFE.

I AM STATING THAT INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE (such as tumblr user uptownthots) CAN BE EXCLUSIONARY ASSHOLES WHICH MAKE PRIDE, WHICH IS OSTENSIBLY MEANT TO BE INCLUSIVE, FEEL EXCLUSIONARY TO PEOPLE BY HOW THEY ACT, TALK, AND TREAT OTHER PEOPLE. I AM STATING THAT EXCLUSIONARY BEHAVIOR HAS NO PLACE AT PRIDE.

I AM STATING THAT THIS HAS A NEGATIVE IMPACT. I AM STATING I HAVE SEEN MEAN, RUDE, AND UNFAIR BEHAVIOR AT MY LOCAL PRIDE EVENTS AS A RESULT OF THIS DISCOURSE. I AM SAYING THAT ONLINE DISCUSSIONS HAVE AN IMPACT ON REALITY, BECAUSE THEY ARE REAL, AND BECAUSE A LOT OF QUEERS ARE ONLINE THESE DAYS. I AM SAYING WE SHOULD MAYBE CUT DOWN ON BEING EXCLUSIONARY ASSHOLES.

Fellow robotfuckers may likely get the reference..... or not....... 🤭✨️
